Project details

What we need
  • Set up of a new website using a Content Management System (CMS) like Wordpress, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, or Weebly
  • Training to ensure Organization's staff members can update content and manage the site post-launch
  • Note: We recommend that you do a Website Content Plan project first, so that you have all the content ready for your new CMS-based site. A CMS-based website can be maintained and updated easily - no coding required!
What we have in place
  • We currently have an existing website, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a website content draft, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to spend more time fundraising, designing and implementing programming.

This project will enable us to increase visibility among funders, community supporters, and participants.
